Still chasing that V-taper. This is my pursuit of happiness 🙌🏽. I always leave the gym in a much better mental state than when I entered. Physically bettering myself, day in and day out also makes me more ambitious and driven in other aspects of my life.
If i could offer you any advice, it would be to change your mindset into believing that you are far more capable of achieving your dreams than you think; its just a matter of consistent and relentless effort. -

Remember when bulking to get enough calories; people pay a lot of attention to protein but a large diet with properly portioned macro nutrients is essential to THE GAINZ -
I personally use GNC 1340 to supplement my intake, still too early to give it a rating.

Despite what many people want to believe, eating healthy does not have to break the bank. Many unprocessed or nutrient dense foods, like fruit, veggies, rice, beans, potatoes, eggs, dairy, etc. are quite inexpensive, especially compared to processed foods. But of all the macros, protein usually tends to be priciest. However, there are still ways you can eat enough while without a big food budge. Here are some of the least expensive sources of high protein foods you can include in your diet:
#
If you don’t eat meat, then Greek yogurt and cottage cheese are one of the best affordable proteins you can find. You’ll get around 24-28 grams of protein per cup (depending on the brand ) for only a little more than $1/serving.
#
Whole eggs are the cheapest protein source there is, not to mention incredibly nutrient dense. Keep in mind the amount of protein for one egg is a little low (6 grams ), and they are higher in fat, so you’ll want to include them along with other options if you’re watching your calories.
#
While using a protein supplement isn’t necessary, it can definitely be helpful if you struggle to eat enough from other foods. Whey protein is very affordable at around $1 or less per serving.
#
For all the vegans and vegetarians, tofu and tempeh are great options. Tempeh is high in protein and fiber and is a fermented food, so it’s supports gut health. Tofu has a little less protein but is still filling and versatile. Either of these can be added to stir fries, soups, scrambles, sandwiches, salads, or even eaten on their own.
#
Fish is one of the healthiest foods you can eat, but you’ve ever seen the price of a fillet at the seafood counter, you know it’s not cheap. Canned fish is packed with protein and very inexpensive. Plus, it’s shelf stable and portable.
#
Chicken thighs are usually about $1 less per pound than chicken breast, but both are fairly inexpensive. You can find either for around $4.99-$5.99/lb in most grocery stores if it’s not organic.
#
Meat is the most expensive protein source, but it can still be affordable. Skip out on the speciality cuts and opt for the ground stuff which usually runs around $5.99-$7.99/lb depending on the leanness.
